+ <title>Ugly Duckling</title>
+ <p>
+ <link href="http://uglyduckling.nl/">Ugly Duckling</link> focus on Software, Management and Finance.
+ We have recently been using Apache POI to create tools for the mortgage group of
+ <link href="https://www.abnamro.nl/en/personal/index.html">ABN AMRO</link> in the Netherlands.
+ During this project we created a number of what we call 'Robots' using the HSSF API.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ These <link href="http://uglyduckling.nl/work/robots/">robots</link> run as services on the network and
+ help automate the processing of large amounts of data. Our Robots can be used to spot problems that
+ a human might not, and also to automate repetitive tasks.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ We found Apache POI to be extremely useful. We took the base API, wrapped it in a builder pattern and
+ thus created a DSL with a fluid interface. Throughout the project we enjoyed very much working with
+ Apache POI and found it to be very reliable.
